New Certificate Transfer Workflow
We have updated the workflow for transferring certificates to make the process clearer. You will also be able link certificates that have already been issued on Carta.
The major problems we want to fix:
- Simplify data entry.
- Clarify what happens after the transfer is processed in Carta.
- Add functionality to connect certificates that are already issued on Carta.
- Reduce duplicate stakeholders from being created.
There are three types of transfers that can be entered on Carta. For each transfer, the stakeholders must already exist in Carta.
1. Full transfer
Transfer the full amount of certificate to one or multiple stakeholders. The original certificate will be marked as transferred, and new certificates will be issued.
2. Partial transfer
Transfer a portion of a certificate to one or multiple stakeholders. The original certificate will be marked as transferred, and the balance of the untransferred shares will be reissued to the original stakeholder as a new certificate.

3. Correct details for a past transfer
This type of transfer can only be used for linking certificates that are already cancelled with outstanding certificates. You are able to correct certificates that were part of a historical transfer, that is not currently reflected on Carta. Link the original certificate and the certificate(s) resulting from the transfer. No new certificates will be issued.
